Put Skew Harvest

Get paid for the fear premium in the put wing.

Live Track Record

DQI-filtered · since June 2, 2026

How It Works

Harvests the persistent richness in out-of-the-money put implied volatility. When the put skew is elevated relative to at-the-money IV and the regime is supportive, the strategy structures a defined-risk position that sells the over-priced put-wing premium while keeping a hard cap on downside. It only engages inside a controlled IV band and aligned regime; it never sells naked into a falling market. The defined structure caps the maximum loss.

What Triggers This

  • Out-of-the-money put skew elevated vs at-the-money IV
  • Implied-volatility rank inside the controlled band (≈0.35+)
  • Regime aligned — not a falling, fear-spiking market
  • Defined-risk structure with a hard downside cap
  • Adequate liquidity in the chosen put strikes
